Hi, one of my packages
https://salsa.debian.org/debian-astro-team/sep requires to specify a path relative to the package base dir (the path to a shared library), which is important for build and for testing. I, Python, it is specified in setup.py. I solved this the following way: d/rules: export BUILD_ROOT=$(shell pwd) setup.py (patched): buildroot = os.environ.get('BUILD_ROOT', '.') This works nicely locally (cowbuilder) and in Salsa. However, on the buildds, the build root is set empty and the build fails. What is the normal way to get the package build root? Best Ole
